You mostly see people in movies clearing their way through the forest with a machete or some other longish blade, but if you have more than just a subtle path to clear, it's time to call in some professional-strength tools. Like the Husqvarna 355FX Forestry Saw ($1,200). Using ergonomically-angle bicycle handlebars for control, the 355FX clears away even the densest of brush with a meaty X-Torq engine, a 22-tooth wood cutting blade that's angled for more effective trimming, thumb-operated throttle, and a jetpack-like Balance XT harness to make sure you stay in control at all times. Dieter Dengler sure could have used one of these.
